Which case? (Opinions)

I went out and got a droid 2 right when they came out...so of course no decent cases were available. So I got the cheap 25$ case from verizon temporarily...and the back was good, but the front only took so long before one tab snapped, allowing it to rub, scratching the entire Bezzle (which im not happy about at all.)
And now its time for a new case since im not comfortable at all using my 600 phone without some protection. I was looking at the otter case, and I like that it comes with a screen protector, but I already have one on and 2 more, but the reviews were pretty poor on the front side...but I like the port covers. Next best option is the seidio brand (imho), but I can't decide on the surface or active. Bulkiness isn't a huge deal but shock protection is, for the reason that I'm a mechanic, motocross rider, I do alot of 4x4'ing, and im just a generaly active person, yet always have my phone on me.
Which one do you guys think would be best? Opinions? And any other recomendations are good too....
I really like the protection level of the otter and the port covers, but a flimsy tab-snapping front cover isn't a option.
Thanks all.
EDIT: also, on my old cheap case, the front tabs would rub on the edges on the keyboard, and made it hard to slide, along with leaving rub marks...I don't want that again. Unfortunately, I'm getting used to the easy typing and sliding without a case...better get one soon! :icon_eek:

I've only used the Seidio and one from VZW. I didn't like the VZW very much. I liked the Seidio a lot, but like I said the pieces begin to wear very quickly and you'll find yourself looking for a new case pretty soon.

FWIW, I have an Innocase and it's fine. It's held up for 2 months of use and looks brand new, and I work in construction. I'm so happy with it that I'm going to buy the Innocase Active, because I want the thicker case for shock protection, just like you. Also, the more of my phone that's covered, the better, because I often have paint/concrete/acetone/whathaveyou on my hands.

Thanks all,
-niceguysfinishlast, good to hear someone who works with concrete and construction, being a mechanic that's exactly what I need, except I'm definately going with the active. the thicker the better, I can deal with the bulk because I'm don't need a 600$ paperweight. But as long as the tabs held up on yours I don't see an issue with the innocase.
I do like the port covers on the otterbox though. But one of the sides is flimsy and once it snaps off once it'll keep doing it.
